Si Chenyu and others returned to Yan Shun with the treasure, which immediately attracted attention and heated discussions from all parties. After reading the treasures, Emperor Yu summoned painters, selected nearly a hundred kinds of rare treasures and drew them into pictures, displayed them publicly, and shared them with the people.
According to the previous agreement, the treasure was divided into five parts, and everyone who held the key could get one, namely the royal family, the Li family, the Shen family, the Wang family and the descendants of the Duobao sage.
For the other four, everyone has long agreed, and it is not surprising. What was really surprising was the descendant of the Duobao sage who seemed to appear out of thin air. His identity is not a secret in the upper echelons, but there are few rumors in the market. It was not until the Emperor Yi announced to the world that everyone suddenly discovered that there was such a person.
What a glorious event to share the treasure with the four masters equally? The identity of this successor has also become famous all over the world with this announcement. As the mayor of a small mountain village in a remote mountainous area, his status compared with the huge wealth he has obtained, as well as the glory of the same name as the four great masters, has also become popular among people. Happy things.
But what really made his fame didn't stop there.
"Wei Xiaobao, Nie Bufan, the descendant of Saint Duobao." Emperor Yu gritted his teeth in the palace. Before the national teacher Fan Luo returned to the capital, he found out Wei Xiaobao's identity, it was Nie Bufan, the village chief of Jiwo Village and the descendant of Duobao sage.
This guy not only used a fake name to deceive the king, but also dared to steal the waist card and run away. It is really unforgivable!
What made him even more indignant was that Fan Luo bluntly expressed his intentions to him, with a look of infatuation that he was willing to accept any punishment and would stay with him for the rest of his life, which made him beat him to the point where he felt no sense of accomplishment.
"Hmph, do you want to stay with him? It depends on whether I agree or not!" Emperor Yu ordered: "Eunuch Qian, immediately send someone to summon the head of Jiwo Village, Nie Bufan, to face the Holy Spirit in Beijing! Within ten days, I will To see him!"
Fan Luo heard the words and showed an evil and coquettish smile to the Emperor.
Emperor Yu shivered for a while, and had a bad premonition.
Eunuch Qian took the order and handed the imperial decree to a eunuch who passed the decree, ordering him to set off immediately.
However, this eunuch could never have imagined that a simple and easy journey would turn out to be an inhuman tragedy. As soon as he left the city, he was targeted by several families. In the next few days, all kinds of "accidents" came one after another, encountering thieves, being robbed, horses going mad, boats sinking, lawsuits... It was really hard and painful.
The original two or three-day journey was abruptly walked by him for more than half a month, far exceeding the time limit given by the Emperor.
When he arrived at Jiwo Village alive, he was already thinner than Huanghua, haggard like a moldy cake.
Tremblingly handing over the imperial edict, he used all his strength to proclaim the edict: "Chicken, Jiwo Village, the village head Nie, Nie Bufan took the edict, the emperor ordered you to come to Beijing immediately, face the holy..."
As soon as the voice fell, the person "popped" and died.
Nie Bufan brushed the "corpse" on the ground with his foot.
Zhang Junshi said: "I didn't die, I was just overtired and fainted."
"Oh." He opened the imperial edict and looked at it, then turned to ask, "Why did the emperor call me?"
"Probably to distribute the treasure of the Duobao saint." Wang Shichan caught a glimpse of the content of the imperial decree, and his words were fierce and literary, but also implied a bit of warning.
"I still have to fetch the treasure myself?" Nie Bufan was unhappy. He likes money, but only in the money that he can get his hands on. If you want him to travel long distances to Beijing to get it, it is better not to. And looking at the miserable appearance of this eunuch who passed the decree, I don't know how much hardship I have suffered along the way? Maybe the road to Beijing was dangerous and difficult, and he didn't want to waste this effort.
Besides, his chickens had already taken a lot of good things out of the holes and were hidden in various corners of Jiwo Village. If one day he became poor and mad, he would just take out a few and sell them, and still live a smart and unrestrained life.
"Wang Wu, you help me write a rejection letter, saying that I will give up those treasures voluntarily, and let the emperor convert cash to support the widows and widows in the whole country!" Nie Bufan threw the imperial edict to Wang Shichan.
Wang Shichan glanced at him meaningfully, and said, "My handwriting is easy to recognize, but it is not convenient to write. Let Junshi do it for you."
Zhang Junshi smiled and nodded, giving up such a large amount of wealth so simply, his open-mindedness is really not comparable to ordinary people.
The next day, when he woke up and heard that Nie Bufan was unwilling to be called to Beijing, he was about to collapse. He took the letter that Wang Shichan gave him, and wept bitterly.
Nie Bufan patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't be sad, trust me, if the emperor receives this letter, not only will he not be angry, but he will reward you."
"Really?" the eunuch Chuanzhi sobbed.
"Of course, feel free to go back!" Nie Bufan looked sincere.
Wang Shichan and Zhang Junshi looked at the eunuch who seemed to be comforted, with sympathy on their faces.
Besides, on Emperor Yu's side, since the eunuch who passed the decree set off, his mood has changed day by day. Although he was dignified and solemn when dealing with state affairs, when he returned to the harem, he became violent. After the eunuch passed away for half a month, there was no news, and he was so impatient that he almost sent the imperial guard to arrest him.
At this moment, the eunuch who passed the decree came back, but he did not bring back the person he wanted to see, only a letter that was well-worded and showed everyone's demeanor.
Emperor Yu stared at the contents of the letter, his fingers trembling slightly, then he suddenly rubbed the letter into a ball, and smashed the eunuch hard at the eunuch who sent the decree. Just bring this back to me?"
The eunuch Chuanzhi was frightened like a shrimp, trembling non-stop.
"You said, are you impatient to live!"
"Your Majesty, spare your life! The servants have done their best!"
Emperor Yu took a breath, recalling the contents of the letter, obviously it couldn't have been written by Nie Bufan. He knew exactly what kind of urine someone was. To his surprise, he gave up the wealth without hesitation.
"I will give you a chance to atone for your sins." Emperor Yu said to the eunuch who passed the decree, "You go to pass the decree again, and this time you must bring people back to me."
"Your Majesty, spare your life!" The eunuch who passed the decree threw himself on the ground.
"Hmph, then you leave your head behind, you don't have to go anywhere."
"Your Majesty, the servant will resolutely complete the task!"
"Very good, this time I will send you a team of men and horses to escort you to Jiwo Village. If necessary, I will tie people over."
"Yes, slaves lead the way."
The eunuch stepped back, and the emperor rubbed his chin, lost in thought. He faintly noticed that it seemed that many people were secretly defending that daring guy.
Wang, Li, Shen, Wei, and Ouhan took a pen and wrote a few words, thought for a moment, and then wrote the three words "Bu Tiangong" on the paper.
"Heh." He hummed and murmured, "It's really attractive. If you don't want the treasure, you don't want it. Well, I will fulfill you."
Three days later, Emperor Yu issued a notice that Nie Bufan, the descendant of Duobao sage, donated all his treasures to the national treasury as donations for the relief of the poor, worth about 105,000 taels of silver.
As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked immediately.
One hundred five thousand taels, such a staggering sum of money, gave up without blinking an eye. What kind of heroic figure is this Duobao heir
Not long after that, the news that he had repeatedly refused to be summoned by Emperor Yu spread like wildfire. After three consecutive summons, they all returned without success. The Emperor was furious, but he couldn't blatantly send someone to arrest him. The whole world was watching. If he really did this, he would definitely be criticized by the literati and righteous people.
In order to get Nie Bufan into the palace, he even secretly sent a master to steal people, but without exception, all of them returned. The people who came back reported that the Jiwo Village where Nie Bufan was located had protection power comparable to that of an imperial palace, and combat power equivalent to that of an army...
Emperor Yu was haunted, he never thought that it would be so difficult to get him back. He finally understood why Fan Luo showed that weird smile when he sent someone to call Nie Bufan into the palace.
The Emperor clenched his teeth and had nowhere to vent. He could only pass all his anger on to the ministers and make them work so hard that they would die.
Just like the dire situation in the palace, the Li family is also going through a catastrophe - Li Yi, the elder son of Li, and his father fell out. The reason is that Li Gongzi fell in love with a man and wanted to give up the family business and spend the rest of his life with him.
Li's father was furious, he blocked it carefully, and stopped people. But he obviously couldn't help it, not only because of Li Yi's good martial arts, but also because of Li Huai's secret help.
He was locked in the day before, and came out unharmed the next day. Li Yi did not flee, but ran to his father every day to hang around.
During the meal, he said blankly, "Father, I want to spend the rest of my life with that man, and I ask for permission."
While reading the book, he stood like a wooden stake and said, "Father, I want to spend the rest of my life with that man, and ask for permission."
When going to the toilet, he stood outside the door and said firmly: "Father, I want to spend the rest of my life with that man, and I ask for permission."
When taking a bath, he said without squinting, "Father, I want to spend the rest of my life with that man, please allow me."
When he was sleeping, he said in the dark, "Father, I want to spend the rest of my life with that man, and ask for permission."
"Ah—" After half a month, Father Li finally collapsed!
"You go! I agree, I agree!"
Hurry up and roll to Laozi in a mellow manner!
Li Yi smiled, his originally stern expression softened, and said sincerely: "Father, thank you for your accomplishment, your kindness of upbringing, and my son will repay it in the next life."
"Don't report it, don't report it." Father Li waved his hand weakly, and said exhaustedly, "I just look forward to your next life, stay away from me in the next life, and I want to live a few more years."
Li Yi bowed, bowed deeply to Father Li, and left.
"Hey, Huai'er, the Li family will depend on you from now on." Father Li patted Li Huai on the shoulder.
Li Huai looked at the back of Li Yi's departure with envy in his eyes, but said in a serious tone, "Father, the child will not disappoint you."
